Coupe ? or Sedan ?

what year and model?

This is a very common question that could be answered by consulting the last page of an owners manual. Coolant capacity with heater = 12 liters. If you don't have such a resource or any kind of repair manual for a coupe, why don't you try posting this question on a bulletin board that deals with that model or 6 cylinders in general?

E9 = Coupe

E3 = Sedan

3.0 = 3 liter

both coupe and sedan 3 liters use the same cooling system with the same cooling capacity.

Enjoy the manual:

same sheit as an 02 - just 2 more zylinders, a ton more wires,

lousy air/cond, and more metal to rust

...Thanks C.D., Gunther, I'd hate to be bugginout the troops, would just rather enjoy what is enjoyable.....say....why not install a V-tec, front drive in the old '02.......would that be more suitable?

How about a Nissan thing into an old 'BM as seen on the blogs...

Cover issues such as an old coupe is just natural on this forum, specially when they are the same year, same maker, same problem....

I would not however try to gleen advice for my wifes E46 or even an E36....to many generations apart.

Oh....did you see this?

You better have some deep pockets if you want a coupe, if you are cheap like me, go for a E3 sedan. They are the bargain of the old BMW community and the same drive train as the coupe. True they aren't as sexy but you won't go broke buying coupe specific parts.
